In a world where ancient prophecies and mystical powers intertwine, Nixel, a determined young man, embarks on a journey to secure his place in the revered University of Pawel. Set in the realm of Malour, a parallel universe connected to Earth, Nixel possesses a unique gift - the ability to manipulate water. Despite failing the initial admission exam, his relentless pursuit of acceptance leads him to a second chance. With his mother's encouragement and his family's esteemed background, Nixel faces the daunting challenge of impressing the Tribunal, a group of powerful beings who oversee admissions and gifts. Little does he know that his extraordinary abilities hold the key to a destiny far grander than he could ever imagine.
As Nixel delves deeper into the world of Chosen and Redeemers, he discovers the intricate web of history and secrets that have shaped his realm. The looming threat of the Voids, a malevolent force that once challenged the Chosen, drives Nixel to uncover the mysteries surrounding the emergence of new Redeemers and the enigmatic Lumin ball. With the fate of Malour hanging in the balance, Nixel's journey not only becomes a quest for acceptance but a quest to unravel the hidden truths that could determine the course of their world's future. Amidst the pressures of family expectations and the weight of his own identity as a gay individual in a realm where acceptance is more inclusive than in the world of Regulars, Nixel strives to find his place in a world of magic, prophecies, and ancient legacies, setting the stage for a captivating and transformative story that challenges conventions and embraces diversity.
